Our supporters

“I was delighted to be able to donate to Rockinghorse as for me, it’s extremely important to support charities close to home”

Chris Eubank Jnr

Over the past year we have again been overwhelmed by the support we have received from so many people in the local community.

From runners to skydivers, businesses to community events, adults to children, their generosity has amazed us.

We’ve had some amazing individuals supporting us during the past twelve months, including 12-year-old Harrison who took the brave step of shaving his head to raise over £1,500 for us and longtime supporter Andy Fountain who ran in six marathon events over two months, adding to his total of £10,000 that he has raised for us over the last 25 years.

The Bears Big Bash banger racing event, organised by Michael Burnage, reached the fundraising milestone of over £170,000 for us since 2012.

We’ve also had some of our wonderful colleagues within the NHS take time out of their busy schedules to support us, such as the seven paediatric nurses from the Alex who took on a skydive, raising over £3,500 for their efforts.

Local businesses have also continued to support us this year. Search Seven, the digital marketing agency run by Gavin Willis, raised £55,000 for us by their 10th anniversary in November 2021. And Chris Eubank Jnr generously donated £10,000 to us in May 2021.

We simply wouldn’t be here without the kind support from all these people, and many more, within our community so thank you to each and every person who has fundraised for us this year.
